Sugar Showdown premiered Thursday, October 1st and is a fun and intense competition series hosted by Josh Elkin, celebrating all things sweet and delicious. Three expert bakers enter the Sugar Showdown studio and compete in episodes that feature cakes, pies, cupcakes or donuts.

First, the competitors must make their best dessert incorporating one mystery ingredient. After three distinguished judges eliminate one competitor, the remaining finalists must make creations based on a theme. Only one baker will be crowned the champion, winning bragging rights and $10,000.

Scott and Meredith will compete in show’s “Garden Pies” episode. The bakers face nutmeg in the elimination round before taking on the garden-themed pie showdown with judges Elizabeth Chambers, Duff Goldman and Maggie McKeown.
